I cut the recipe in 1/4. I used 2 lbs of chicken wings and....1/2 lb pollock fillet in two pieces. I used one full teaspoon of fresh minced garlic, so I really didn't cut the garlic by 1/4. I also sprayed Pam in the pan, less mess. I didn't puree,just heated until the apricot preserves blended with the lime juice, soy sauce, sugar and garlic. Absolutely delicious! So was the fish! I did not cook as long as it said, I didn't want the wings to become hard on the edges or have the fish overcooked. I will make again! Thanks for posting!

Awesome flavor combination--loved the sweet and tart together. I used three boneless skin-on breasts (cut in chunks) and halved the sauce. Since it cooked in about a third the time (I also cranked it to 450), the sauce didn't have a chance to thicken much, but it totally penetrated the meat and we spooned on the rest. I went out and bought wings today just so I could use up the leftover cup of sauce (I only used half) and use the slow-cook method. I will definitely add more garlic (used 5 small cloves), but it was wonderful as is. I greased my baking pan and that did the trick. I served it with mashed sweet potatoes and it went perfectly. Thanks for posting this easy and delicious recipe!

<p>My favorite cookbook is anything by Lora Brody. My passions include gardening, reading and approaching recipes with a creative touch. I am on a gluten-free journey after being diagnosed with celiac's disease.</p>
<p>I make a LOT of custom sugar cookies for a variety of occasions. I enjoy creating cookies that make someone feel special. I have also combined my computer talents with an edible imaging system to make some pretty cool birthday and graduation cakes and cookies.</p>
<p>My pet peeves are recipes that call for cans, boxes or containers of stuff. Measuring cups and spoons are essential for success in baking.</p>
